How To Cook Slow Roast Pork Knuckle - Recipe

Making a shank sounds like an easy job, and it's so delicious that there's nothing wrong with it. The downside, however, is that it is quite greasy, which not everyone likes. This fat can be used in the best way and from fatty and loose meat, to have a crispy pork shank with tender meat. Here's how to do it.

Required products :

• 1 knuckle
• salt and pepper

Method of preparation :

Turn the oven to 120 degrees.

Cover the tray with aluminum foil and place a grid on top, on which you put a piece of baking paper.

Season the meat and place it on the paper.

Bake for 8 hours.

Remove the shank from the oven and cover it with foil.

Allow to stand between 15 minutes and 2 hours at room temperature.

Then increase the oven temperature to 250 degrees.

Return the shank to it and bake for 20 minutes, turning it every 5 minutes.

Remove from the oven, cover again with foil and leave for 15 minutes.

Serve the shank with a sauce of your choice.

If you want to make a sauce from pieces of meat, do not put foil on the bottom of the pan. Then add 2 glasses of white wine and stir to combine with the fat and juices released during the roasting of the shank. Transfer the sauce to the saucepan and reduce, and at the end of cooking add a little oil.
